"Da Luo Immortal Emperor?" Qin Yu's focus is different again. He doesn't understand what Da Luo Immortal is.
As for the female emperor, he is not surprised at all. There is no such thing as male superiority and female inferiority in the real world. There are many female cultivators who serve as lords and military leaders.
However, Cui Yi proclaimed himself emperor as a queen and took over the world from her husband's family. This is the problem.
It would be different if she was not a queen, but an emperor's daughter, or even the emperor's niece.
Jiang Yao explained: "In ancient times, the Great Perfection of Earth Immortals, when their lifespan is over, they will become immortals and die, and their physical bodies and souls will dissipate. This is called the Great Way of Incarnation. Among them, those with the highest status during their lifetime and those who have made great contributions are posthumously revered as Great Luo Immortals.
.”
Qin Yu said with relief: "It turns out that Daluoxian is a revered title. Zhongda, you really know a lot."
He originally thought that he was very knowledgeable. There were few young people in Shenzhou who could surpass him. Who would have thought that Jiang Yao actually knew more than he did.
Jiang Yao smiled and said, "I only found out when someone told me."
Jiang Yao no longer cared about the life of the empress, he only cared about Yu Kuan.
"Yu Kuang!" Jiang Yao couldn't help shouting as he looked at the dark and deep hall. Otherwise, it would be really difficult to find such a big place without his consciousness.
"Yu Kuang..." Jiang Yao's echo echoed, making the entire underground palace seem even more gloomy and silent.
However, where is Yu Yan’s response?
Qin Yu shook his head: "Kan Lazi must have left through another exit. The Huo Yuanzhu must have been taken away by her. You still care about her so much. You are really a good son-in-law of the Yu family."
He pointed to a cold jade platform not far ahead and said in a very definite tone: "That cold jade platform is definitely the Well of Cold Heart before. It was the coldest there before."
"The Huo Yuan Pearl should have been sealed in Han Yutai. This object belongs to the empress, and her clothes and relics must be in the storage space of the Huo Yuan Pearl."
Jiang Yaodao: "Brother Qin means that Huo Yuanzhu is the coffin of the empress?"
Like the Wooden Yuan Pearl, the Fire Yuan Bead also has its own life space. Since it is a space, it can be used as a coffin.
Qin Yu nodded: "Didn't you say that after the Earthly Immortal Dzogchen died, he would become an immortal? Since he has become an immortal, there will be no body, only the clothes and relics left."
"The space in the Fire Origin Pearl is just enough to hide her clothes and relics."
"This imperial mausoleum should have been very hidden in ancient times. If it hadn't been for the great changes in the sea and the world, it would have been difficult to find it, and even if it was found, it would be impossible to get in."
"The most top-notch ring cannot store the Fire Elemental Pearl for a long time. The ones that can seal the Fire Elemental Pearl for a long time are either the Water Elemental Pearl or the Cold Realm."
Qin Yu was indeed one of the smartest among the teenagers, and Jiang Yao couldn't find a single flaw in his guess.
The two of them walked towards Hanyu Terrace, feeling even more bone-chilling. This was because Hanxin had changed its direction. If not, the two of them would have been frozen to pieces.
Hanyu Terrace is actually where the coffin of the empress's tomb is located. As for the coffin, it should be the Huoyuanzhu. Using the Huoyuanzhu as the coffin is quite a big deal.
After finally standing on the gorgeous and ancient cold jade platform, Jiang Yao looked inside and saw a flower heart among the ice petals in the center.
But this flowery heart is already empty.
A little bit of powder from the ring magic weapon is still scattered on the ice petals.
It is obvious that in the center of this petal, there was a ring, and in the ring was the Fire Pearl.
After the ring was destroyed, the Fire Pearl was exposed and was sealed by the cold realm for tens of thousands of years.
However, it took too long, and it was difficult for the cold realm to seal the breath of the Fire Pearl. Only then did the breath leak out, and the Fire Phoenix manifested over the desert.
As a result, many strong men took the risk and died in the desert one after another.
Only one girl successfully found this place, took away the Fire Pearl from the ice petals, and then left.
This is roughly what happened.
Jiang Yao looked at the empty petals and looked around the empty underground palace, unable to help but smile bitterly.
I originally thought that Yu Kuan was trapped in the underground palace of the Imperial Tomb, so I tried every means to come in to find her. Who knew that she had actually taken the Fire Yuan Pearl and left long ago.
Not here at all.
The two of them looked around and finally found a few pieces of ice jade. At least they had something to withstand the intense heat, so their trip was not in vain.
Qin Yu sighed: "I really shouldn't have come looking for Huo Yuanzhu. So many people came in to look for Huo Yuanzhu, but ended up falling because of various dangers. Only Yan Lazi got the advantage, and we..."
When Qin Yu said this, he suddenly showed a look of shock and anger, and stopped talking.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yao felt that Qin Yu remembered something.
"It's Yan Lazi." Qin Yu said with a gloomy look, "The person who leaked the news about Huo Yuanzhu must be Yan Lazi! I was so stupid, I didn't think that she was the one who leaked the news!"
Jiang Yao frowned and said, "Brother Qin, why did you say this? Why did Yu Kuang deliberately let the news about the Fire Yuan Pearl go? Don't make random guesses."
"Am I making random guesses?" Qin Yu sneered, "There are many dangers in the depths of Wujian Desert. You have encountered sand ghosts only a few days after you came in. If you hadn't had a pistol, we would have been eaten by sand ghosts."
"But the dangers here are not only sand ghosts? There are also evil creatures such as blood-eating intestinal worms, evil ghost lizards, sand fire wolves, etc. These evil creatures have lived in the desert for a long time and have become accustomed to the rules. They are extremely dangerous."
"Many people were killed by these evil creatures before they could starve to death or die of thirst..."
Jiang Yao understood, "Brother Qin means that Yu Kuan deliberately released the news of the Fire Origin Pearl, attracting a large number of monks to search for it, so as to attract evil spirits and ghosts from the forbidden land, so that she could come here to take away the Fire Origin Pearl."
Pearl?
Qin Yu nodded and gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sure that's the case. Yan Lazi is insidious and vicious, and this isn't the first time she's done something like this. A large number of monks were tricked by her, attracting a lot of dangers, so she will be safer."
"She had a map, but no one else did. Everyone came in like a swarm to help her block all kinds of dangers, but they were unknowingly taken advantage of by her."
"Oh, it's a pity that so many people died in the forbidden land, and they all died in a daze. It's not worth it."
When Qin Yu said this, he wanted to give himself a slap in the face.
Jiang Yao shook his head: "She won't lie to me, and she won't let me come in and die. I'm sure of this."
Qin Yu asked: "Did she let you in?"
Jiang Yao was stunned, "No. On the contrary, she repeatedly stressed that I should not come in, saying it was too dangerous."
Qin Yu sneered: "Isn't that right? She didn't let you in. You insisted on coming in to find her. So, she didn't lie to you."
"Humph, when I get out, I will reveal the truth and say that all this is a trap by Yan Lazi. Let's see how she gets established in the future."
Jiang Yao solemnly said: "Brother Qin, this is just your guess, it's just a one-sided statement. Don't talk nonsense, it will damage her reputation."
Qin Yu smiled bitterly and nodded, "Okay, I promise you, you don't have to say anything. But don't expect me to have any good impressions of Yan Lazi."
"However, Yan Lazi is likely to have obtained the inheritance of the Zhaotian Immortal Emperor and the Fire Yuan Pearl this time. She must be more powerful. It is already difficult for anyone to suppress her in Shenzhou."
"Of course, maybe she failed to get out and died here."
Jiang Yao looked ugly and stopped talking about Yu Kuan behind Qin Yu's back. Instead, he went to look for her elsewhere.
After searching from palace to palace, Yu Kuan was not found, but a female corpse was found.
When Jiang Yao saw the female corpse, his hair stood on end and his heart nearly jumped out of his chest.
who?!
Qin Yu walked forward quickly and said in surprise: "It's Huaji!"
Hua Ji? Isn’t that the Taoist disciple of Fu Dao Shrine? He is one of the top three strong men in the Shenzhou Renzi monthly vote list.
She is less than a hundred years old, but she is not only a Talisman Immortal, but also a Martial Immortal, with very strong qualifications and strength. Moreover, Huaji is also a famous ruthless person in Shenzhou. She once skinned a human to make a talisman, which caused controversy.
Her master, Taoist Master Jihua, is not only the Great Sage of Fu Dao, but also the Sage of Martial Arts.
Jiang Yao immediately breathed a sigh of relief, it was not Yu Kuan.
Qin Yu squatted down and inspected Huaji's body.
Hua Ji is also a beauty, but her face is pale at this moment, with a sense of unwillingness and despair.
There was a strangulation mark on her neck.
Qin Yu touched the marks on Huaji's neck and said after a while:
"She was strangled to death. The thing that strangled her should be a long whip." Qin Yu raised a pair of cold eyes, and the meaning was self-explanatory.
"In her hand, there was a blue hosta. This hosta was not her own, it must have belonged to the murderer. Well, at that time, she was strangled by someone's neck. During the struggle, she pulled out the hosta from the murderer's head and wanted to stab the murderer.
"
Qin Yu raised the jade hosta, and the tip of the hosta was broken.
"It's a pity that although she stabbed the murderer, the murderer was too well prepared and actually wore soft armor. The hosta did not penetrate and the tip broke instead."
"Just like that, she was strangled to death. Well, she was strangled for at least an hour before she died."
Qin Yu said this and sneered: "Zhongda, tell me who killed the famous Fu Gong Daozi Fairy Huaji? Huaji is not an ordinary person."
Jiang Yao said indifferently: "Don't you just want to say that Yu Kan killed her? Why was Yu Kan so stupid to kill someone? Why did he strangle Hua Ji's neck for more than an hour? Isn't she tired?"
Qin Yu clapped his hands and stood up, "That's because Huaji can't bleed."
"Why can't it bleed?" Jiang Yao was puzzled. He didn't understand Huaji.
Qin Yu said: "Huaji is not only the Taoist disciple of Fu Gong, but also the daughter of Taoist master Jie Hua. She has extremely high talent in the Tao of Fu. Their own blood is the top pigment for painting talismans, which is very special."
"In the forbidden land, magic power and magic weapons cannot be used. Even if Huaji is killed, the soul shadow beads in his body will not be activated. Taoist Master Huaji will not know who killed his daughter."
"But it will be different once there is blood. Huaji's blood will be contaminated by the murderer, and Taoist Master Jiehua will immediately sense the murderer's breath through his daughter's blood."
Jiang Yao did not doubt Qin Yu's words: "So, the mysterious man who killed Huaji must have known this and did not dare to let the deceased bleed, so he chose to strangle him alive."
Qin Yu sneered: "What do you mean by the mysterious person who killed Huaji? That was Yu Yan! Are you still unwilling to admit it?"
"However, Hua Ji is not a kind person, and his methods are more ruthless than Yu Kan, so he is not a good person. Yu Kan's killing of Hua Ji is nothing more than a superior move.
Jiang Yao thought to himself: Others are not good, but you, Qin Yu, are good? Are you a good thing?
The young man touched the poisonous snake in his sleeve, squatted down and looked at Hua Ji's body, and said in deep thought: "Why did Hua Ji come back? It seems that she came with Yu Kuan?"
Could it be that Hua Ji and Yu Kuan came together and were traveling together?
However, when Yu Kuan came in, he deliberately walked against the wall and left footprints. But Huaji walked in the middle of the tomb passage, and the footprints were quickly messed up by the sand ghost?
Qin Yu thought for a while: "I understand. Huaji must have been fooled by Yan Lazi."
"Yu Kuan must have known about the imperial tomb before. Maybe someone told her, or she accidentally discovered the records in ancient books."
"She knows that the Fire Origin Pearl is difficult to take away in the Forbidden Land, and there is no way to store it. So, even if she gets the Fire Origin Pearl, she can't block the Fire Origin Pearl's aura from leaking out, so how can it be kept secret?"
"What should we do? Then we must use a treasure. This treasure is the Talisman Soul Bag of Fu Dao Shrine."
Jiang Yao frowned again: "I know about the Soul Talisman Bag. It is the only magic weapon that can be opened with thoughts without the need for spiritual consciousness."
Qin Yu nodded: "Yes. There are many storage magic weapons in the real world, but they all require spiritual consciousness to open. Only this Talisman Soul Bag is not only a high-level storage magic weapon, but it can be used without spiritual consciousness."
"Yu Kuan may have set a trap so that Huaji could unintentionally obtain the specific location of the imperial mausoleum and how to enter it. How could Huaji endure the temptation of the Fire Yuan Pearl? She would definitely bring the Talisman Soul Bag and come here to get it.
Fire Pearl."
"So, Yu Kuan didn't come with her. Yu Kuan should be——"
Qin Yu pointed to a nearby side hall, "Kun Lazi should have come first and hid in this side hall in advance, waiting for the enemy. It is very likely that she was hiding behind the pillar at that time..."
Jiang Yao felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.
But Qin Yu continued to say: "Soon after, Hua Ji fell into the trap and came. She was very surprised when she saw the Huo Yuan Pearl, and she immediately collected the Huo Yuan Pearl with the Soul Talisman Bag."
"But she had just received the Fire Pearl and was enjoying herself when she was suddenly attacked by Yan Lazi who was hiding in the dark. He wrapped a whip around her neck and the two started fighting..."
"In the end, Yu Kan strangled her for more than an hour, strangling her to death. After that, Yan Lazi took away her soul bag containing the Fire Pearl and left."
At this moment, Jiang Yao felt that Qin Yu was like a seasoned detective, vividly deducing a story based on just a few clues.
"No." Jiang Yao shook his head, "Then why did Yu Yan deliberately walk against the wall and leave a line of clear footprints to make people deliberately doubt her?"
"Also, since she set a trap and deliberately lured Huaji into marrying her, why did she use a whip to strangle Huaji? Wouldn't she have prepared a rope in advance? Change to a bigger pair of boots? Why leave clues?
?”
Qin Yu said: "Because, those footsteps are not coming in, but going out."
Jiang Yao was stunned, "Did she come out backwards? Or was she holding on to the wall, which means she was injured at the time, so she was holding on to the wall?"
Qin Yu nodded: "Yes. When I checked that line of footprints before, I found something wrong. I always felt a little weird. I thought Yu Kuan did this on purpose."
"Now I understand that the reason why it feels weird is because those are the footprints of Yu Kuan walking backwards from the inside out, not the normal footsteps walking forward."
"It's just that I didn't expect that she would walk backwards."
"The reason why the footprints on the left are deep is not because she was carrying heavy objects with her left hand, but because she was injured and was holding on to the wall with her hand, causing one footprint to be deep and the other to be shallow."
"The reason why the footprints are clear is because she held on to the wall and did not walk in the middle of the tomb passage."
Jiang Yao sighed: "It must be so. Unexpectedly, she did not leave the footprints intentionally, but was forced by the situation at that time."
"In this case, the whip is not a loophole. After she killed Huaji, she must have planned to bury it in the sand. After being buried in the sand, it quickly turned into a mummy, so no one noticed the whip marks, and there was no way to suspect it.
she."
"However, after she killed Huaji, she was in danger and injured before she could bury the body and leave traces of destruction. She could no longer bury Huaji and could only leave in reverse."
Qin Yu nodded after hearing this and said: "Zhongda is really smart, that's all. So you see, the footprints and whip marks are not loopholes. It's just that she had no way to deal with it at the time and had no time to deal with it."
When Qin Yu said this, his expression suddenly changed.
"What danger made Yan Lazi unable to bury the body in time and forced her to hold on to the wall and retreat out? Is this danger still in this underground palace? Who was that sighing before..."
As soon as he said this, Jiang Yao suddenly shouted: "Be careful behind you!"
Qin Yu looked back and was shocked, and his heart almost exploded.
At some point, Hua Ji stood up.
The famous Fairy Huoji had been dead for a long time, but now she suddenly stood up, and even Qin Yu felt hairy all over his body.
Huaji cocked her neck, her eyes still full of resentment and despair, her hair disheveled, and she grabbed Qin Yu.
Qin Yu had no idea that Hua Ji would suddenly transform into a corpse.
Of course the monk is not afraid of corpse transformation, but the problem is that now he is a "mortal".
Caught off guard, Qin Yu pushed the bone crutch in his hand and was caught by Hua Ji's hand.
Huaji's zombie has amazing strength. When she squeezed it with her hand, she heard a "click" and crushed the bone crutch.
Obviously, without the use of pistols, Jiang Yao and Qin Yu combined would not be a match for the Huaji zombies.
However, Huaji's speed was not fast. She did not catch Qin Yu, so she staggered towards him again. Qin Yu's legs and feet were nimble and he immediately distanced himself.
"Let's go!" Jiang Yao didn't shoot to kill Huaji because he was afraid that blood would flow from the body and make Taoist Master Huaji suspect that he was the murderer.
The speed of the two was faster than Huaji's, and they got into the sand in the tomb passage before she rushed forward with her hands spread wide.
Huaji's body did not dig into the sand to pursue her. She walked back unsteadily, returned to the place where she was strangled, and lay down on the same spot.
If someone who doesn't know sees her body, they will definitely go over and take a look, and then...
………
Jiang Yao and Qin Yu crawled out of the sand-filled tomb passage in embarrassment, both panting from exhaustion.
Fortunately, both of them had ice jade, and the vicious heat could no longer torture them.
"It was so dangerous. I almost had my head crushed by Hua Ji and eaten. I am sure that her body can eat people." Qin Yu said with lingering fear.
"It's a pity that Hua Ji was also a strong man of the generation. He died here and turned into a zombie because of his undying resentment. Unexpectedly, the sigh we heard before was made by Hua Ji."
Jiang Yao nodded: "As soon as Yu Kuan killed Hua Ji, Hua Ji immediately turned into a zombie. This must be related to the Great Yin Feng Shui pattern in the underground palace."
Qin Yu sneered and said: "Yan Lazi must have never imagined that Huaji's corpse would change just after she died. She was caught off guard at the time and her leg must have been pinched by Huaji's corpse."
"Her legs were pinched and she couldn't run fast, so she could only hold on to the wall. She was also afraid that Huaji would attack from behind, so she could only back up to resist Huaji while retreating."
"Fortunately, Hua Ji died in the underground palace and could not leave the underground palace. If he chased him out of the tomb passage, he could not continue the pursuit. So, Yan Lazi withdrew step by step and was able to escape."
Jiang Yao smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, that should be the truth of the matter."
